Yes, this is very common in ADHD. Word finding relies on working memory and retrieval speed. When attention shifts or the brain is juggling multiple thoughts, the word can simply vanish. This can feel embarrassing or frustrating, especially in professional settings. Clinicians understand this as a cognitive slip, not a speech or intelligence issue. Slowing down, pausing, or circling back often helps. You are not alone in this.
